Nok – Third-Generation Amphiphile for Cross-Coupling Chemistry in Water

Micellular catalysis has provided the ability to carry out several commonly used transformations used in the synthetic community to be carried out in water.

Baeyer-Villiger Oxidation Reaction

The Baeyer-Villiger oxidation is the oxidative cleavage of a carbon-carbon bond adjacent to a carbonyl, which converts the ketones to esters and the cyclic ketones to lactones.
